The Best MMO You (Might) Have Never Heard Of!
Posted July 17th, 2008 by Isobelle
Wow. Not WoW, just wow. I just discovered a game that absolutely captures the essence of our beloved genre so perfectly it's basically a criminal offence that I didn't know about it until today. I'm personally never speaking to anyone on this website again until you bastards all send me PMs about how sorry you are for holding out on this one. Seriously, what the fuck. Do you assholes think you'd keep this gem to yourselves? Afraid I was going to start playing myself and 'use up all the fun'? I'm sure you've all been leveling Low Elf Mu-Fu Monks, or Eel Man Puma Burglars without me, and for that, it's over between us. No more witty wit-filled witticisms from ol’ Isobelle anymore. No more wonderful stories that warm your hearts on cold nights. It's fucking over between us, and from this point on I will find my only solace in the warm embrace of my new best friends on the Spoltog Server.
In all honesty, I can't describe the game without giving too much away, and the pure unadulterated joy of the game can only come from just diving in headfirst and starting up a Shiv Knight of your own, and slaying your first Wolf. I'm about halfway through level 1 already (the XP curve feels good), have about two combat moves, and I've only done about five quests so far. I’m not going to spoil it anymore by posting screenshots or anything. Just trust me on this one. It’s everything an MMO was meant to be, and it’s FREE. WoW feels hollow. Pretty much everything feels hollow now, in fact.
Just grab the client and fire it up. The initial DL is very small, you’ll be up and running in no time. You'll be heaving awards on its combat engine, and kissing trophies in no time. Guaranteed.
Haha, awesome picture!
My Enchanted Motorcycle Voodoo Princess is coming to beat you down!
Is there a class that shoots arrows?
I commend you on finding this gem. For anyone addicted to WoW - here is the illuminating cure.
I am stuck on level 11. Has anyone finished the "Placate the Nalfeshnees" quest line?
Did you get the Golden Hymnal from the Moakums? Turn that in first.
No no, you have to exterminate the sphinxes. The hymnal is for something else.
What does the "porn elemental lube" do?
It's for the "placate" quests.
this game is approximately EVERYTHING i was ever looking for.
I am level 25 already, after just one day. Although that did involve 24 hours of nonstop gaming. Amazingly, I have not missed any sleep or work or any of my normal duties. This is a very healthy game and satisfied all my urges to progress.
So at what level can I start raiding?
Ding! level 40. Now where's my mount!?
Level 40 already, what do you do, play night and day?
